Love At First Fright is a cozy but spicy paranormal/supernatural romance, and while it's connected to Best Hex Ever, you don't need to have read that book to enjoy this one! It definitely works as a standalone. Rosemary is a horror writer, whose book is being made into a film, and she's always been able to see ghosts. Actor Ellis is not who Rosemary wanted for the lead role in the slightest, but their relationship quickly develops.
I did really enjoy the main characters, and I loved the message about sexuality positivity. It's unfortunate that this book has a third act breakup because they're not really something I like in romances unless there's like a proper, realistic justification for them. I'm a bit on the fence about whether this one was necessary.
I did binge it in one go though over an evening and had a really fun time with it!
